Herein, a photoinitiated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) dispersion polymerization of 2-(acetoacetoxy)ethyl methacrylate (AEMA) in ethanol/water at room temperature for in situ preparation of β-ketoester-functionalized block copolymer nano-objects is reported. AEMA is also copolymerized with isobornyl methacrylate (IBOMA) to improve the colloidal stability of PIBOMA-based block copolymer nano-objects prepared by photoinitiated RAFT dispersion polymerization at low temperatures. A series of P(IBOMA-stat-AEMA)-based block copolymer nano-objects are prepared by changing reaction parameters. Finally, lanthanide-doped block copolymer nano-objects with luminescent and magnetic properties are also prepared based on the complexation of various lanthanide ions with the β-ketoester group. It is expected that the current study will provide a facile platform for the in situ preparation of β-ketoester-functionalized block copolymer nano-objects with different morphologies for specific applications.
